阅读理解

    Cara Lang is 13. She lives in Boston, Massachusetts, US. Last Thursday, she didn't go to school. She went to work with her father instead. Every year, on the fourth Thursday in April, millions of young girls go work. This is Take Our Daughters to Work Day. The girls are between the ages of 9 and 15. They spend the day at work with an adult, usually a mother, father, aunt, or uncle. They go to offices, police stations, laboratories, and other places where their parents or other family members work. Next year, the day will include sons, too.

    The Ms. Foundation, an organization for women, started the program about ten years ago. In the U.S, many women work outside the home. The Ms. Foundation wants girls to find out about many different kinds of jobs. Then, when the girls grow up, they can choose a job they like.

    Cara's father is a film director. Cara says," It was very exciting for me to go to the studio with my dad. I saw a lot of people doing different jobs." Many businesses have special activities for girls on this day. Last year, Cara went to work with her aunt at the University of Massachusetts. In the engineering department, the girls learned to build a bridge with toothpicks and Candy. In the chemistry department, they learned to use scales. They learned about many other kinds of jobs, too.

Night after night, she came to help me sleep, even long after my childhood years.

I don't 1 when it first started making me upset—my mom's hands pushing my hair that way. But it did upset me, 2 they felt rough (粗糙的) against my young skin. Finally, one night, I spoke out angrily, "Don't do that anymore, your hands are too rough!" She didn't say anything, but she 3 did it again.

Years later, I missed my mother's 4 and her good-night kiss on my forehead.

I'm not a little girl any more. My mom is in her mid-70s, and her rough hands are still doing things for my family and me. She's like a doctor to us, always knowing how to 5 a young girl's stomach. She cooks the best fried chicken in the world.

Now my own children are grown-up. It was late on Thanksgiving Eve. As I slept in my bedroom, a 6 hand ran across my face to push the hair from my head. Then a 7 , ever so gently, touched my brow (眉毛).

Taking my mom's hand, I told her how sorry I was for that night I 8 her. But she said she had 9 it long ago.

That night, I fell asleep with a new appreciation (感激) for my gentle mother and her 10 hands. And the regret that I had carried around for so long was nowhere to be found.

 阅读下面短文,理解其大意,然后从各题所给的A 、B 、C 、D 四个选项中选出最佳选项。

"Where was the cashier (收银员)?" I wondered. Feeling1 with having waited at the counter ( 柜 台 ) for at least 3 minutes, I quickly looked at my watch. I was afraid I2 had enough time to eat a sandwich and then rushed back to work.

When I looked around the nearly empty3 , I saw a woman cleaning a table in the corner. She looked at me coldly with sad, dark eyes.

I felt so angry that I was almost out of4 . Suddenly I remembered Mom's words. "5 you find yourself in an unpleasant situation, just think about what is missing. If someone is6 , then kindness is missing. If someone is hateful, then 7 is missing. If we will do what's missing, then we will provide whatever the situation needs."

And here I was in an unpleasant situation.8 should I do "what's missing"? What was missing was service. Should I just jump behind the counter to take the food I would order?

Just then the woman walked slowly towards me. "May I help you?" she asked, still 9 .

She looked so tired.10 , she was overworked.

I took a deep breath. With Mom's words still ringing in my11 , I gave the woman my order and smiled. "How are you doing today?"

My question seemed to 12 her. She looked at me for a second before answering. "Not too good."

"I'm sorry," I said, "I hope it gets better from right now."

She almost smiled as she handed me the food. "Thanks. I hope you're right."

I thought to 13 as I ate my sandwich. We're the same, really. We have problems and angers, we get tired and we hurt. We need to be14 to each other.

After eating, I cleaned the table cleaner than usual, and put the tray (托盘) back nicely on the stand. The woman was watching me all the time, with a big smile on her face.

"Do what's missing." What mum said really15 .I smiled back to her, too.
